ABSTRACT
This paper aims to evaluate the emergence of possible City Law as an autonomous branch of Law, as well as its outstanding importance for the fundamental rights and sustainability effectiveness. The problem that we intend to develop is to investigate whether the Right to the City can be characterized as an autonomous branch of Law. To this end, it initially addresses the characterizing elements and essential requirements for the City Law autonomy emergence. It continues with the analysis of this new branch independence in relation to Urban Law and Environmental Law. It highlights the relevance of the City Statute as a fundamental law and a source par excellence of the City Law. In this article, we use the inductive approach method, hypothetical procedure method and bibliographic research. As a result, it concludes by the emergence of a new branch of Law whose object is the City Law, endowed with relative autonomy and high potential to foster the effectiveness of fundamental rights and urban sustainability.
